Created attachment 121731 [details] Anaconda Dump This is what I saved after the installer crashed. Pretty nice feature to be able to save the output. :)
There are a lot of error messages from your CD in the syslog. Did you check your media? Paul -- we need to handle this exception nicely and give people the media error instead of just an exception :)
Folks, Upon double checking the cdrw disk with the test program at initial boot, it showed a FAIL. I reburned it and the install worked fine.
Closing as report due to media issues
